pole at home. kids curious
My 6yr old is very.curious about my in home pole. He has tons of playdates and the 1st thing he does is rush to my workout room to show them.
I said, yep, mom has a “ballet post”. They’re so young I rename it to lesson any controversy.
I’ve.shown my son “tricks”. Of course.purely gymnastic. He has asked me to.show his friends. They.call them “ballet tricks”. All totally athletic, innocent etc!
I also don’t know how this will.come off to my sons dad. (We share.custody).
I am a new pole addict. I take class with a real pro, and I’m hooked. I just wonder how this.could come out with all the kids parents, my ex, etc.
Anyone out there had this experience? Any advice?

Honestly they lost interest in my simple tricks because they were too hard! Plus I started to say, “I pulled a muscle, I’ll show you another time”. I don’t want my workouts to be “verboten”, but It’s really “my time”.
Hope this all comes off sounding like it is, a single mom who refuses to hide her fitness pole!
Any feedback?

I was worried about this when I first started too, but now my kids hardly notice the pole is there. One of my sons drew a picture for school of his mom, and of course I was on a pole. LOL https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif

hi huni, i have 2 kids 7 & 4 and they are the same. they no i do pole-fitness and they do it with me.. they also try and show their friends but ive told thm i dont want 2 upset their friends parents in ase the disagree with what im doin, although i dont really care what others think of me as i dont poel for them i do it for myself and no1 else. my kids enjoy doin my workout with me and have actually got some good strength since they started doin pole with me. really your sons dad doesnt have a say with what u do or show ur son wen he is with you, u are his mum so if u want 2 share your pole experience with your child then u shoud be able 2 do so. if u need some1 to talk 2, just drop me a messgae huni. xxx
